I know the GLK350 is like a love level merc and the one i'm driving is a base model but how every feels and how its laid out inside is great. Also rides great while not feeling boring. I was looking at a 2017 WRX but riding in the Merc makes me want something a little nicer esp on the inside. My requirements are AWD, "sport" handling without riding to harsh (foe example the STi is way to harsh for me), sunroof, and a it's gotta come in stick shift.
Is there anything from Audi or or maybe even Volvo that fits my needs? Should I just not be retarded and get the WRX?
One thing that was disappointing to me in the Merc was the radio, sounded worse then my wife's Dodge Charger, granted shes got the top of the line package but still would think the Merc would sound better.
Audi s4 m8 friend has one of the earlier ones and its comfy af and stupid fast. Also German .
Certified Pre-Owned Audi S4 or Audi S3
New 2015+ Golf R

>coming with a manual
Best look elsewhere, son. Don't be retarded and just get the WRX. The new ones are a lot nicer on the inside than the old ones anyway.
>>14762861
Ill look into it
>>14762875
Golf R has no runroof or i'd check it out
>>14762878
Will probably end up in the WRX esp now they have android auto support. Just wanna check out other things as well.
>>14762875
>>14762861
Looks like new S3 is only auto, what about lost generation? Can they be got in a stick?
>>14762930
>lost
Meant last, holy fuck i need to pay more attention
>>14762802
Manual Audis are probably the best bet. Their interiors are nice and have a good material choices. Most of them come with their quattro system.
Volvo does not make manuals as far as I know anymore for the American market. The new models are based though. Would take one over most Mercedes.
>>14762962
The new S3 does not come in stick, does last gen models come in stick?
Would look into Volvo but man I really want a stick shift
>>14762976
Possibly, if they did it'll be hard to find. The DCT that VWAG has is great. I do remember seeing a manual S4 for sale once.

They don't make em anymore as far as I can tell. not looking to get into an old car either. This is gonna be a daily driver and I don't want issues
Heres a question for the Subaru fans, how long will it take for the 2017 Impreza tech to trickle down to the WRX?

Every first world manufacturer offers what you want.
What you need though, is an E34 M5.
>>14762802
Scoop up a uswd GS350 F Sport if you are worried about reliability.
>>14763170

Not AWD

There is a big contradiction in your post.
>>14763234
Shit. I didn't see that part. Maybe and IS350 AWD with the F Sport package then.
>HURR GERMAN CARS A SHIT! I DON'T NEED NO FANCY INTERIORS SO GAAAY
>t-this is actually kind of nice and better than a riced out japanese shitbox or baseball american Cadillac STD
:^)
>>14763248
I mean yeah, I mean I never said German cars were shit. Like I said the wifes charger comes close but it's not as smooth as a ride or as quiet but shes got all the options though.
>>14763247
No stick option that I can see. Guessing if I want to move up in luxury i'll have to get an auto. Also seems like everyone is going biger cars. I like small nimble cars. Wouldn't want to go bigger then a WRX size car.
>>14763303
Cadillac ATS?
>>14762802
Honestly the GLK350 is one of the more interesting cars in their range. It's like a Forester, but *so* much nicer. (Seriously, Subaru interiors are so fucking disgusting)
They've dumped it for the GLA, GLC, GLE, and trying to compete with the X1, X3, and X5.
Unfortunately your pickings are extremely thin with that kind of wishlist. If you can hunt down a 328iX with a manual transmission, you can easily swap some suspension bits to change the ride how you like it. (But good luck!)
>>14762802
>complaining that a car meant to handly stiffly has stiff suspension
the wrx is much comfier and there's not much difference between it and the sti
I would recommend you buy neither though. Maybe a Ferd Taurus SHO? those are pretty comfy
Get Audi and remove kebab.
If you use a german car then also use automatic. You dont want to wear and fuck up the clutch/gears
Have you looked into the new mazdaspeed3? It's not out yet but it's AWD with a great interior, and will probably be super reliable
>>14764126
>yes, i would like more electronic and needlessly complicated things to break
>>14762802
What OP wants is a 335ix with 6MT.
>OP didn't say anything about reliability anyways
take a look at polestar volvos, theyll surprise you
>>14764238
...with how much they cost.
>>14763064
I don't normally say this, but holy fuck you're a fucking cuckold. Jesus christ, learn to wrench you tremendous pussy. Does your wife give you reacharounds when she's pegging you? Or does she just blow kisses while Tyrone and friends run a train and you watch?
>>14762878
Actually, you can order a new 3 series in stick in burgerland. Have fun paying the stealership's tax for a "custom car" though.
>>14764862
Why the fuck would you want to be constantly wrenching on your daily? That shit's for project cars. Unless you just like getting stranded in random places every time it shits out on you.
>>14762802
>Muh interior
Sure ok you get a nice interior but everything else will break and European cars generally do not age well and cost A SHITLOAD to fix.
Just get a nice early older american luxury car with nice interior
>B-but i like clicky buttons that feel nice and it has a heated leather dildo

A bit contradictory.

Nearly every bmw is available with AWD and a manual

I have test driven both, you are ether full of shit that's never drive a STi or a WRX or your to retarded to know what a good ride is. And what are you even saying? What is the WRX comfier than? The Merc? No shot in hell. You have no fucking clue what you are talking about.
Also the fucking Taurus SHO is a boat and feels just like my wife's charger
>>14763802
Yeah, the GLK350 is really fun little wagon thing. If I was in the market for a small SUV it would be top of my list.
>>14764212
Is it gonna get a stick?
>>14764862
Yeah homo, I spent to many sleepless nights getting my shit box back together so I didn't have to take a taxi to work the next day. I'm to old for that bull shit anymore. Additionally I will get a project car after I get my daily driver sorted out.
>>14764907
So stupid i'm not even going to address your "points"
>>14766743
WRX fits them requirements, whats kek about it?
>>14766840
why is AWD a requirement
why is a sunroof a requirement
>>14766843
Shit climate, lots of snow and ice. Fwd with snow tires is not really enough. As far as a sun roof goes, feels so good in summer to have the sun roof open and windows down, wind blowing your hair around. Feels good man
